Penne alla vodka is one of those dishes that is almost impossible to understand. How does a handful of simple ingredients transform into a sauce with such a delicious flavor? While I would classify this classic dish as pizza because even a bad version can still taste good Ina Garten's version stands out for its rich intense flavor.
While Ina’s recipe contains all the ingredients you would expect from a vodka sauce her method may surprise you. At first glance I was a little confused by her approach. Vodka sauce is usually quick to make but the cooking time in her recipe was over two hours. I should have known better than to doubt Ina for a second; the secret to her sauce is a nice long roasting time in the oven.
